Due to a failed experiment with bike inertia v. sharp corner, I am in need of a Jardine RT-1 (black) can + mid-pipe for the right side of my '98. I have tried contacting Jardine but that has been a frustrating process to say the least.
I've looked at the DanMoto product but am not a fan of the short can offered (DanMoto advised they would not make longer cans on request).
Aside from buying a new from one of the majors, does anyone have any ideas?

How bad is the damage? The cost of replacement parts aside I'm assuming your frustration stems from the fact that they no longer make that system. You can get the midpipe, but it won't be chrome and you'll have to simply grind off the spring loops. I bought a used set off here a little ways back and it came with a steel replacement mid. I just wetsanded and polished it (free vs getting it chromed) and no one can tell the difference.

Anyway shortening the can (along with the other side to match) is fairly easy. Usually the front part is what gets damaged in a fall and you can just disassemble the cans and cut off a few inches. They end up looking better anyway. Post up a couple pics and we'll take a look. Hope you ended up ok by the way.

I have a set of Hindle cans I will sell cheap. They are round and long like the Jardines. Mine are stainless.

Note Hindle only has one spring mount, I can send pic's of how to mount it to 2 spring up pipes.

According to an Australian mag they're worth 5 HP but I can't prove it! Just do a search for Moriwaki parts and you get the Aussie with the magazine results!
